Description: Returns number rounded up to the nearest even integer. You can use this function for processing items that come in twos. For example, a packing crate accepts rows of one or two items. The crate is full when the number of items, rounded up to the nearest two, matches the crate's capacity.
Syntax: EVEN(Number)
Number is the value to round.
Remarks:
Number must be numeric.
Regardless of the sign of Number, a value is rounded up when adjusted away from zero. If Number is an even integer, no rounding occurs.
Example:
EVEN(1.5) = 2 [rounds 1.5 up to the nearest even integer]
EVEN(-1) = -2 [rounds -1 up to the nearest even integer]
